Disappointing experience- room smell, TV quality exceptionally poor, service not matching what’s advertised. Feels very dated. The W in Brisbane was a far superior experience in my opinion, I would recommend going there instead. Please read if you’d like further detail on my experience, the TV doesn’t work so I’ve got ample time to sit around and write reviews: I booked a stay at the Emporium Hotel South Bank and was looking forward to using the pool. Being pregnant, swimming is one of the few exercises recommended to help relieve physical pressure, so this was a major factor in my decision to stay here. Upon arrival, I was informed the pool was closed for maintenance. When I asked where this information had been communicated, I was told it was listed at the very bottom of the booking page. However, because the "Book Now" button sits well above that notice, there was no need to scroll, and I never saw it—there was no prominent alert or banner upfront. Rather than offering an apology or understanding, the staff simply told me it was my mistake. To make matters worse, the room has a distinct smell of damp or mold. With a heightened sense of smell during pregnancy, this has made the stay extremely unpleasant. Because of the lack of care from staff and the overall disappointing condition of the room, I have already canceled a future booking I had here for later in the year. I expected a much higher standard of service and attention to detail.

Over the years my husband and I have stayed at The Emporium a number of times, including in their fantastic poolside cabanas. We’ve always loved it, although it is annoying that inhouse guests aren’t guaranteed a spot in the top floor bar. My mum and I were coming down from the Sunshine Coast for the night to see a play at QPAC and I thought it would be nice to treat her and relax at the hotel post play. Room was great, staff were great, appreciated the cocktail and hot chocolate vouchers. But soooooo disappointed to come back from the play at 10pm for a quiet drink downstairs with Mum and friends to finish the evening off and be told was closing. The bar is advertised as open til 10.30pm Monday to Thursday and “til late” on Fridays. This was a Friday. We then went up to level 21 which we were told was closing at 10.30pm. It was freezing outside so we sat at a table inside - had a “reserved” sign on it set up for breakfast the next morning, plus plates, cutlery and glasses (most tables were empty and they were all set up like that, we had no choice if we wanted to sit inside). Next thing someone swooped down and grabbed all the plates quite abruptly and told us the table was reserved. FOR BREAKFAST! Totally unnecessary. This is a 5 star hotel, and quite expensive and we should expect a certain level of accommodation to guests for that. Yes we could have had a drink in our room but there were several of us and we wanted to enjoy the ambient surrounds offered (usually!).

Unfortunately we booked the ‘Magic Table’ from the moment we arrived we were treated like leppers, an inconvenient as we wanted a drink from one of the bars, one of the severs was very rude advising in a rude tune we ere not allowed to be in the restaurant as they were shut for a private function. Every bar and restaurant was closed for the Albatross tourism event. If they didn’t want us there might have asked us to reschedule. I was so disappointed I felt like walking out. Server in the magic table was a lot nicer. Starter was a deep fried Mozzarella stick, followed by a few other small plates. Baramundi was lovely, so was fillet of beef. Dessert was disappointing and ice cream was just too melted, consistency of cream and the chocolate biscuit was dry. For $150 each, we spent about $500 including drinks, waste of money and was very upset as booked this for our 10 th wedding anniversary. We will never come back, mostly due to rude female sever in ground floor bar/ restaurant. Personally, I worked in hospitality for 7 years and never was rude to a customer like this. Maybe she should get a job somewhere she doesn’t deal with customers

I love my 5 day stay at this beautiful hotel. Everything was to its fully perfection. The room huge with a grand design and very functional. The infinity pool on the 21st floor with a magnificent view. The Spa was super clean and well kept. Recommend to all and I will be back for sure.

We recently stayed at Emporium Hotel South Bank for our anniversary, which turned into a very special surprise engagement and I truly couldn’t imagine a better place for it. From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly warm, friendly, and welcoming. They went above and beyond to make our stay feel special, even helping my partner arrange flowers to be set up for when we returned after our engagement. I also really appreciated the location. I have some mobility issues with my legs, and being so close to everything made getting around much easier and far more enjoyable. The room itself was immaculate and felt genuinely luxurious. The bed sheets were unbelievably comfortable, and everything was cleaned and maintained to a very high standard throughout our stay. Every detail felt seamless and well thought out. I honestly cannot fault a single thing, we absolutely loved our stay and will always associate it with such a meaningful milestone in our lives. Highly recommend!
